Since the current Stampin' Up catalog ends May 31st, I wanted to share a couple cards that you could make with the retiring products, so you could purchase these supplies in my online store before they are gone! When you sign up with Stampin' Up to be a demonstrator, not only do you get a startup kit for $99, you also get lots of helpful handouts, flyers, etc. like these tutorials! You can sign up in my online store as well....

Just wanted to remind you that this is the last month that you can order anything from Stampin' Up's retiring list. Many items are already gone or in limited supplies...

And next month the new Stampin' Up catalog comes out - here is a little peek of the front of it:

There will be new colors, new items, stamps, etc.! If you join Stampin' Up as a demonstrator at my online store, you can preorder new Stampin' Up products before the catalog goes live! Getting new catalog
products* early is exciting AND helpful to you as a demonstrator. It lets
you prepare samples and stamping events so that you can start strong when
the annual catalog goes live on June 1.

Since demonstrators share ideas using the new products, new demonstrators get to choose preorder products (including host sets!)
for their Starter Kit. You’ll find more ideas for the preorder on
the Stampin' Up website, and you can visit the exclusive Resources page to learn more about the annual catalog, if you join now!

You can join just to have fun, get discounts, etc. for yourself, sell to your family/friends, host classes, and get invited to special Stampin' Up activities and events! What I really like about Stampin' Up is that they do their homework and offer a high-quality and good selection of the most current products and ideas, plus you can earn trips and other incentive prizes. Just try it and join and see if you don't agree!

As I mentioned in my previous post earlier this week, I have been busy with making a purple satin wedding scrapbook for my son's wedding (their wedding colors were purple, gold, white). I shared pictures of the book in the making, and here are the inside pages of it and a few closeups (many Stampin' Up products, of course!):
